Daft Punk may be back with their contribution to the Tron: Legacy OST, but old material from the Homework days is usually classed as off limits, especially in the polluted world of remixes.

Canadian maestro Chilly Gonzales operates on a slightly different plane, however; look no further than this rework of “Rollin’ & Scatchin'”, wittily titled “Pianist Envy”.

Coupling intricate work on the ivories with the original crashing beat, he cuts 3 minutes off of the 7 minute running time and still finds ample space for an amazing Rocky Balboa speech. Check it out below.

Just as impressive is his minimix for Annie Mac, in which he takes the concept to new places with a literal interpretation on the piano. Head over to Too Many Sebastians’ comment section for a more in depth look at the tracklist: it’s an impressive mix of old school hits (Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go, Eye Of The Tiger) and cinematic scores (The Godfather Theme, Chariots Of Fire) blended by the classically trained legend.
